Justin Vernon AKA Bon Iver
The album ‘For Emma, Forever Ago’ by Bon Iver is my favourite album to listen to at the moment. It’s a nice album to put on and either listen to, or just have a sing along with.
Many of you might have heard the song ‘Flume’ as it was featured on the TV show Skins, and you may also have seen him perform the song ‘Skinny Love’ on the Jools Holland show.
If you are a fan of any of the following artists, i’m sure you will get some enjoyment out of the album;
Bruce Springsteen
Tom Mcrae
Ray Lamontagne
Damien Rice.
Ever since hearing his album, I also found a collection of songs on youtube that were taken from a very small release album he made originally.
